UNIT Decoy Blanket

The Doctor's decoy blanket is a critical prop in his escape. Drawn over a pillow in the wheelchair, it creates a convincing illusion of his slumped form, fooling Munro and the soldiers into pursuing an empty ambulance. The blanket's folds and the way it drapes over the pillow are meticulously described, emphasizing the Doctor's attention to detail in crafting the ruse. Its role is purely functional—misdirection—but it carries narrative weight as a symbol of the Doctor's ability to turn mundane objects into tools of deception. The blanket's discovery by Munro marks the turning point where UNIT realizes they have been outmaneuvered.
